I think Smith will retire. I think heās accomplished what he wanted to and proven he can play again. If he does chose to continue to play we either need to cut him or I think they would actually restructure his contract. He canāt make $24 million next year. We just canāt pay that much for a back up QB. Hopefully heād agree to remain on the team - if he wants to play - and we can get his 2021 cap hit cut in half. I wouldnāt mind signing Fabs longer but I havenāt seen enough except his few flashes every year. I guess I could go 3 years and $9 million like Dunnyās old deal but thatās as high as Iād go. Iād rather get him at like 3 years $5 or 6 million. Edited November 13, 2020 by turtle28 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeT14 Posted November 13, 2020 Share Posted November 13, 2020 That may be a little low for Juju's salary looking at averages. It's what Diggs and Robinson make which seems fair but they signed that two years ago. Maybe covid helps. We'll see.Ā Is that us getting Fields at #2 overall? Because that's the likely spot, no?

If the early FA predictions from MLB's experts are any case, it most certainly will affect salaries.Ā Yes, the NFL has a cap, and the MLB doesn't, but revenues impact the clubs in the same way.Ā If the NFL and NFLPA can agree that Covid is a force majeure case and will float the cap at the same level for a couple seasons instead of a decline with revenues being down, salaries will stay up.Ā Ā That being said, I doubt JuJu hits the open market.Ā They are going to slap the franchise tag on him, and we aren't giving up a first rounder.

I'd rather get 4 years of some in the 2nd or 3rd at te then 1 year of Njoku. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Steelers are loaded at WR. The Steelers are near salary cap max. They have to re-sign their LT Villanueva, their ROLB Dupree & Juju. With Claypool emerging as a probable #1 soon I think it points to Juju being the one they donāt re-sign, but it could be Dupree that they let walk.

Or maybe Iām not understanding what youāre saying. Keep in mind if we want Juju, Robinson, Fuller or another too WR we are going to have to overpay some bc we wonāt have an established QB like some other teams do.

LoganF89 Posted November 13, 2020 Share Posted November 13, 2020 I like it outside of the trade for NJoku. I canāt see the browns getting a 3rd they have boched Njokue value like how we did Trent Williams. They may get a 4th or 5th honestly. i wish we went after LT a little heavier and Iām not a fields fan but other than that it aināt bad 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
